Good point, Jamie. And I guarantee somebody will use that against them too.

Apparently they are claiming they don't recruit against MAC schools.Comment

Maybe Danny O'Brien will take note.Comment

M just wasn't that interested in Danny O'Brien and Tommy (?) Schutt... M was still recruiting elite DT's when they passed on those two but the coaching staff felt the needs elsewhere were more important and liked their haul of interior DL: Pipkens, Strobel, Wormley & Godin... M was still recruiting elite DE's too but were only willing to take the very best; they wanted Adolphus Washington but couldn't get him to return the interest.Comment

Arnett will attempt to transfer to a university in M next season; according to reports close to him and his preference is M. Mixed reports on how transfers are counted by the NCAA, I've read both that they count against the max of 28 recruits and just the opposite...
Anyway, its overdue that the NCAA puts a strict rule on the amount of scholarships a program can have on signing day. This goes a long, long way to stop oversigning. Coaches can still make room for recruits previous to signing day.
re: Arnett; he'd be about perfect for M. He'd come at the perfect time ('13) and be ready to produce immediately right after Daryl Stonum & Roy Roundtree graduate. Not much in his way in front (Jerald Robinson, Jeremy Jackson, Jeremy Gallon & Drew Dileo) or behind him: Amara Darboh, Jehu Chesson.Last edited by WM Wolverine; December 30, 2011, 07:49 AM.Comment

Arnett is saying that he will try to get a hardship waiver from the NCAA allowing him to play in '12.Comment

He ought to sue Vince Dooley. There is no NCAA restriction on kids who wish to be released from their scholarships. He's trying to enforce something of his own making. Tennessee won't suffer any sort of irreparable damage if Arnett transfers to Michigan or MSU. He ought to sue Dooley personally.
I know he probably wouldn't win, but the publicity against Dooley would be worth more than the actual verdict."in order to lead America you must love America"Comment

Transfers don't count against your 28 recruit limit, but they due count against your 85 scholarship maximum. Finding Arnett a scholarship is going to be the road block to getting Arnett. I believe if he does transfer to Michigan then we can only sign 27 recruits because we don't have an extra schollie unless someone leaves early or jumps to the NFL.Originally posted by WM Wolverine View PostComment

We've got 4 left right now, and I believe one of them is being set aside for a WR.
If he can get past Dooley, and wants to come to Michigan, Hoke will find room for him."in order to lead America you must love America"Comment

Would there be a problem with transferring his credits (ala JuCo transfers)??To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment

Less likely a problem from Tennessee than from a JuCo I would believe.Comment

Arnetts father was sick when we were recruiting him the first time. While a dick move by Dooley, if his father's illness truly is the reason he wants to transfer, a MAC school should be just fine.Comment

I kind of agree with that, Oracle.
Dooley may be a dickwad but I'm not sure we're getting all of the story. I think there is probably more to it.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.Comment
